What is the difference between ESG, CSR, sustainability, and Net Zero?

Hi! I am Barbara Albert, the Co-CEO of 100% Renewables, a consultancy specialising in the development of net-zero strategies.

Have you ever wondered what the differences between ESG, CSR, sustainability and net zero are? In this blog post, we explain the nuances of these terms.

We have delivered a number of board presentations recently, and one of the questions that is often raised is ‘what is the difference between ESG, sustainability, CSR and net zero?’

ESG, sustainability, CSR, and net zero are all related concepts that reflect an organisation’s commitment to environmental, social, and governance issues, in conjunction with achieving economic goals. ESG, sustainability and CSR are often used interchangeably. However, each of these concepts has its own distinct focus and meaning.
